Damn... you said those words "cross platform".. But I'll still take this opportunity to plug Winbinder again. If you're just working with a Windows platform, Winbinder has it all! Fantastic interface, very self contained, just a great PHP standalone/app/etc extension all around.

Eh.. check it out anyway. :)

Hi there,



I am going to take that chance now to ask if it is viable to create a
standalone app with php and gtk+, fully realizing that this IS the php list
;-)

I was thinking of php/gtk+ because I need that as a cross-platform
application. What I really would like is to have .rpm's and .exe's created,
so one can include them in the OS startup. Is this possible at all with php?
Has anyone worked with php to create standalone apps?



I essentially want to be able to auto update and synchronize a local xml
based database with an online one (ok, plus doing some viewing and creating
of reports, and so on, and so forth . )



Alternatives could be: mono, qt (arrgh), mozilla/xul (any done that?) or
Java :-( .



Any thoughts on that?



Thomas
